 I simply want to show my support for more transparency in market data and reporting. The ability to obscure and delay data from public scrutiny allows for our markets to be exploited by large financial institution without recourse, and subsequently undermines public trust in these systems. If there is not serious change enacted to protect ALL investors from predatory, underhanded, and straight illegal practices (through increased reporting and transparency requirements), I will no longer be able to support the current market in good faith. I hope this does not happen, as I want to trust in the regulatory bodies to fight for me and other individual investors that feel similarly. Thank you for your time.
